In patients with thoracic esophageal carcinoma, radical dissection of the upper mediastinal lymph nodes often leads to complications such as recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and subsequent pulmonary disorders. Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) to the upper mediastinum and nerve-sparing three-field lymphadenectomy followed by external beam radiotherapy has been developed to improve the locoregional control rate without resulting in these major postoperative complications.
